NEW MUSIC: “Talk Is Cheap” by OBD

“Talk Is Cheap” by OBD is bold. It’s heavy. Plus, it calls everything into question.

The track opens with the artists’ voices cutting through the noise. They’re not preaching. They’re documenting. The lyrics tap into what so many feel but don’t say out loud. It’s commentary, but it’s personal. The world is changing, and not always for the better. People are watching empty words pile up. Politicians speak. Promises fade. Nobody moves. OBD doesn’t let that slide.

The structure is built like a warning. Every line adds pressure. Verses highlight a system on autopilot, full of “bad weather” and “blind faith.” The phrases repeat and echo, like a cycle. That repetition sharpens the message. The lyrics hold a mirror to anyone listening. You either hear it or you don’t.

There’s a vintage grain to the production. It feels grounded, like something lifted from a rally or a street corner cipher. The beat never overpowers the words. That’s intentional. The voice leads. The message takes priority.

This isn’t background music. It’s a piece to sit with. OBD isn’t asking for agreement. They’re asking for awareness. They’re drawing a line between talk and action. Between real and fake. Between faith and facts.

“Talk Is Cheap” doesn’t give you answers. It doesn’t need to. It gives you perspective. That’s more valuable right now.

We see you, OBD. Keep talking. Keep moving. Keep making them uncomfortable.
